We ordered the blue stripe version of this chair -- looks great!  The wood is a gray-ish with a faux antique look which I wasn't expecting but is nice. The chair cushions are quite comfortable. Assembly wasn't too difficult (one of the legs was uneven making the chair wobbly, but we switched them and it fixed the problem). FYI, the blue stripe pattern chair didn't come with a pillow (I didn't think it would, but since the tan pattern chair is shown with an extra pillow I wanted to mention it).  Also, these shipped very quickly and arrived with no damage.
